Proverbs 3:1-10

1My son, don’t forget my teaching, but let your heart keep my commands;

2for they will bring you many days, a full life, and well-being.

3Never let loyalty and faithfulness leave you. Tie them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart.

4Then you will find favor and high regard with God and people.

5Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding;

6in all your ways know him, and he will make your paths straight.

7Don’t be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and turn away from evil.

8This will be healing for your body and strengthening for your bones.

9Honor the Lord with your possessions and with the first produce of your entire harvest;

10then your barns will be completely filled, and your vats will overflow with new wine.
